POLK COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH PARTICPATES IN RADON ACTION MONTH

Polk County Public Health is partaking in Radon Action Month throughout January. Radon is a colorless and odorless gas found in soil and joints throughout Minnesota. Because soil is so porous, Radon moves up from the soil and into homes. The gas can accumulate in the air we breathe, making it a health concern.

“This gas can accumulate in our homes regardless of the home type,” said Polk County Health Director Sarah Reese, “Whether it’s in the foundation or if it’s manufactured, whatever the case may be, it comes from the soil and what happens is when you inhale the Radon gas over time the tiny particles can damage your lungs.”

Exposure to Radon over long periods can lead to lung cancer. Exposure to Radon gas is the number one cause of lung cancer in people who do not smoke cigarettes. Smokers who are exposed to Radon enhance their chances exponentially. Many people are unaware they have been exposed to Radon due to its natural occurrence in the soil. The most effective way to test your home for this gas is to find access to a Radon testing kit.

“We like to talk about Radon in January,” said Reese, “The reason for that is that most homes in our neck of the woods have a heavy heating season. Often, this is a good time to test your home for Radon because things are tight and closed up.”

Polk County residents can access Radon test kits from the Polk County Public Health office. Few are available, and Polk County has many kits on backorder. Polk County Health has offered free Radon test kits for over a decade, precisely for Polk County residents, in honor of the Radon Action Month. When an individual receives a test kit, they can hang it in their home for three to seven days, and it will collect the Radon data, which the Polk County Health Department can analyze the information. “We always tell people to test their home in a space that you spend ten or more hours a week in,” said Reese, “For example, there is a family with an unfinished basement, and they don’t spend a lot of time in there, so that’s not where you should test in your home. However, I spend time in my basement, which would be a good place to test for Radon.”

Since 2010, Polk County has had 58 to 60 properties tested each year. Of the properties tested, 70% of the tests have shown more fantastic than four picocuries of Radon per liter of air. “What this means is four picocuries per liter is the threshold of the Environmental Protection Agency,” said Reese, “They would recommend action with these numbers. When I say action, it means a mitigation recommendation or something to reduce the amount of Radon in your home because it will likely negatively impact your health over time.”

If you have a home that shows these results, Polk County Public Health recommends that you test your home twice. If the results indicate elevated Radon characteristics, the second test can confirm the results were correct and there wasn’t misinformation in the first results.

The Minnesota Department of Health recommends that Minnesota residents conduct Radon testing in their homes every two to five years. It is impossible to eliminate all Radon rates in residential areas due to its natural occurrence. However, reduction is the goal state-wide. For more information on this matter, or if you have questions regarding your home, call the Polk County Public Health Office at 218-281-3385.

CROOKSTON MITES AND MINI-MITES PLAY AT INTERMISSION OF UND HOCKEY GAMES

Thanks to a new program called Little Hawkey, Crookston Youth Hockey players got to skate at the Ralph Engelstad Arena in Grand Forks.

The Crookston Mite group, kids ages seven and eight, got to enjoy skating in the first and second intermissions of the University of North Dakota games earlier this season. The mite group consisting of kids 7 and 8 years old got to enjoy skating in the first and second intermissions of the UND game vs the 18 and under USA team. They had 74 people in the group, with 21 mite skaters.

The mini mites, kids 6 and under, got to skate the first intermission of the January 6th contest between UND and Anchorage Alaska. They had 140 attendees with 17 mini mite skaters, not only that, but they enjoyed a visit from several UND players after the game.

“Overall, both our groups had a great experience and one that will be remembered for a lifetime by our young players and families. This was all possible in great part due to the willingness and support of our hockey family and friends in the community,” said Mike Enright. “UND Hockey is a great partner and inspiration with their lead, John Kramer, reaching out to us and other local communities to give kids this great opportunity.”

GRAND FORKS FIRE DEPARTMENT RESPONDS TO PROPANE LEAK

At approximately 1:08 pm on Tuesday, January 9th, 2024, the Grand
Forks Fire Department was dispatched to 2419 2nd Ave N for a report of a propane leak. Prior to fire units arriving on the scene, bystanders reported that the tanks were on fire.

First units on the scene reported flames coming from the tops of two large propane tanks being used to heat a construction area. Fire crews worked to cool the tanks down and control the fire enough that supply valves could be shut off. Fire damage was contained to construction site materials and the tanks themselves. UND High Performance Center was evacuated, as well as all construction workers in the immediate vicinity.

GFFD responded with 5 fire engines, 1 ladder truck, 1 command vehicle, and 21 personnel. No injuries were reported. GFFD was assisted by employees from the UND Police Department, Grand Forks Police Department, Altru Ambulance, UND Safety, and Northdale Oil.

After investigation, the leak was determined to be accidental due to a broken fitting on a propane tank, with ignition being caused by a nearby heat source.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s hospitalization was due to infection after surgery for prostate cancer

US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin at conference of NATO Defence ministers at the NATO headquarters in Brussels on February 15^ 2023.

In a statement released by the Pentagon on Tuesday from his doctors, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was hospitalized to treat an infection that was related to earlier surgery for prostate cancer. The statement from officials at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center provides new details about Austin’s hospitalization, after controversy arose over the Pentagon’s failure to notify the White House and Congress about his condition for several days.

According to the officials, the prostate cancer was detected early last month and Austin underwent a “minimally invasive procedure” on Dec. 22 to treat and cure the cancer. The statement added that Austin was placed under general anesthesia and “recovered uneventfully”, and that the cancer “was detected early, and his prognosis is excellent.”   The statement went on to say that while at home on Jan. 1, Austin began experiencing “nausea with severe abdominal, hip, and leg pain” and was readmitted to Walter Reed, where he was found to have a urinary tract infection and was transferred to the ICU the next day. Further testing revealed abdominal fluid that was obstructing his small intestine, and doctors placed a tube through his nose to drain his stomach.  Austin’s doctor said that “he has progressed steadily throughout his stay. His infection has cleared. He continues to make progress and we anticipate a full recovery although this can be a slow process. During this stay, Secretary Austin never lost consciousness and never underwent general anesthesia.”

Controversy arose after the Pentagon did not tell the White House, lawmakers or Austin’s second in command about his Jan. 1 hospitalization for several days. According to Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Patrick Ryder, several Pentagon officials, including Austin’s chief of staff and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, learned Austin had been hospitalized the next day, on Jan. 2. Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks assumed some of Austin’s duties that day but was not told that he was hospitalized until Jan. 4, when she was in Puerto Rico.

Ryder said Monday that the delay in notifying officials was partly due to Austin’s chief of staff being sick with the flu: “I’m offering you the facts as we have them, in terms of an explanation of how this happened and also the fact that we will review our procedures and look at how we can do better in the future.”

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during a press briefing on Tuesday that President Biden has full confidence in Austin, and that Mr. Biden learned of Austin’s prostate cancer diagnosis on Tuesday morning.

New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez asserts his innocence on Senate floor

NJ Sen Bob Menendez during press encounter at Newark International Liberty airport terminal B Newark^ NJ - January 8^ 2019.

In an impassioned speech on the Senate floor on Tuesday, New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez asserted his innocence and denied federal charges against him alleging that he took bribes from Qatar in exchange for a friend to get a lucrative contract. The Democratic senator said he was facing “persecution” by the Justice Department rather than prosecution, and defiantly declared he did nothing wrong.

Menendez, the former head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, was hit with a three-charge bribery indictment in October for allegedly acting as a foreign agent for Egypt. Earlier this month, hit was hit with new charges alleging that he took bribes from the Qatari government to help a friend. Menendez said in his floor speech: “Why did the government not proceed with all of these accusations from the beginning? The answer is clear to me. By filing three indictments … it allows the government to keep the sensational story in the press. It poisons the jury pool and it seeks to convict me in the court of public opinion.”

Menendez accused prosecutors of wanting a judicial victory rather than legal justice, and questioned the foundation of the Justice Department’s case against him.  He decried that some already have judged the case “despite my innocence and before a single piece of evidence has even been introduced in a court of law.”

Menendez is up for re-election this year; if the case proceeds to trial, it will be the second time in his career Menendez will face off against federal prosecutors. Bad in 2017, a jury deadlocked on charges that he accepted gifts from Egypt as an unregistered foreign agent (those charges were dropped after the trial).

Elvis LED Text

The UK’s leading immersive specialist ‘Layered Reality’ will launch an Elvis Presley avatar show called Elvis Evolution in Central London in November 2024, with multiple cities across the world to follow.

In a statement announcing the special event, Layered Reality promises that the mind-blowing “concert finale” featuring the King of Rock will feature a “jaw-dropping” performance and a “personal invite to the After Party.” The statement read: “the show peaks with a concert experience that will recreate the seismic impact of seeing Elvis live for a whole new generation of fans, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. A life sized digital Elvis will share his most iconic songs and moves for the very first time on a UK stage.”

The show promises to use Layered Reality’s patented blend of “technology, augmented reality, theatre, projection and multi-sensory effects” to reproduce the late rock icon for his first-ever shows outside of North America nearly half a century after Presley’s 1977 death. The statement continues: “Elvis fans can look forward to a memory-making experience like no other. Through AI and groundbreaking tech you’ll be able to witness iconic Elvis performances as if you were really there, and celebrate defining moments in Elvis Presley’s extraordinary life and career. After the show, the central London venue will also host an After Party at its ELVIS-themed restaurant and bar with live music, DJs and performances.”

Tickets are set to go on sale sometime this year, with additional cities including Las Vegas, Berlin, and Tokyo with further details to be unveiled. Check out a preview of the immersive Elvis Evolution AI hologram show – here.
